Hi Mark - I am your number 1 fan in Australia! I have watched you for years! Early videos! Your the most experienced fisherman I have seen! It's exciting to see you on U tube! God bless you Sir! Kevin.
Yew! Burgy does it again 😂 Love the vids as always, keep up the good work and I might see you at the tweed store 🤙 (Is that soft plastic on oh using a zerek flat shad? Just getting ideas for birthday pressos)
Mail-cheeked fish are spiny-rayed fish of the order Scorpaeniformes, there are over two-thousand, one-hundred, and eighteen extant species within forty families, fourteen superfamilies, and five suborders, the five main groups within the Scorpaeniformes order are the suborders Normanichthyoidei (Bacaladillo, Prettyfin, and Sandfish), Platycephaloidei (Flatheads and Gurnards), Zoarcoidei (Eelpouts, Wolffish, Wolfeel, Pricklebacks, Wrymouths, Gunnels, Goblin Goby, Graveldiver, Ronquils, and Quillfish), Cottoidei (Sculpins, Lumpsuckers, Snailfish, Greenlings, Blackcod, and Combfish), and Scorpaenoidei (Scorpionfish, Lionfish, Stonefish, Coral Crouchers, Rockfish, Cofish, Prowfish, Toad Blenny, Horsefish, and Pigfish), Normanichthyoidei is the most basal living suborder of mail-cheeked fish and consists of two superfamilies, Trichodontoidea with just the family Trichodontidae (Sandfish) and Normanichthyoidea with the monotypic families Normanichthyidae (Bacaladillo) and Centrogenyidae (Prettyfin), followed by Platycephaloidei, which consists of two superfamilies being Trigloidea (Gurnards) with the families Triglidae (Common Gurnards), Peristediidae (Armored Gurnards), and Dactylopteridae (Flying Gurnards) and Platycephaloidea (Flatheads) with the families Platycephalidae (True Flatheads), Hoplichthyidae (Ghost Flatheads), and Bembridae (Deepwater Flatheads), then followed by Zoarcoidei, which consists of four superfamilies, Bathymasteroidea (Ronquils and Quillfish) with the families Bathymasteridae (Ronquils) and Ptilichthyidae (Quillfish), Zaproroidea (Goblin Goby and Graveldiver) with the monotypic families Zaproridae (Goblin Goby) and Scytalinidae (Graveldiver), Zoarcoidea (Eelpouts) with the families Eulophiidae (Spinous Eelpouts) and Zoarcidae (True Eelpouts), and Anarhichadoidea (Wolffish, Wolfeel, Pricklebacks, Wrymouths, and Gunnels) with the families Pholidae (Gunnels), Cryptacanthodidae (Wrymouths), Stichaeidae (Pricklebacks), and Anarhichadidae (Wolffish and Wolfeel), the most recent split is between the suborders Cottoidei and Scorpaenoidei, the Cottoidei suborder contains three superfamilies, Hexagrammoidea (Greenlings, Blackcod, and Combfish) with the families Zaniolepididae (Combfish), Anoplopomatidae (Blackcod), and Hexagrammidae (Greenlings), Cyclopteroidea (Lumpsuckers and Snailfish) with the families Liparidae (Snailfish) and Cyclopteridae (Lumpsuckers), and Cottoidea (Sculpins) with the families Agonidae (Poachers), Rhamphocottidae (Gruntfish), Bathylutichthyidae (Antarctic Sculpins), Ereuniidae (Deepwater Bullhead Sculpins), Psychrolutidae (Fathead Sculpins), Comephoridae (Baikal Sculpins), Hemitripteridae (Sea Ravens), and Cottidae (Common Sculpins), and the Scorpaenoidei suborder is also divided into three superfamilies, Congiopodoidea (Horsefish, Pigfish, and Velvetfish) with the families Aploactinidae (Velvetfish) and Congiopodidae (Horsefish and Pigfish), Pataecoidea (Prowfish and Toad Blenny) with the families Gnathanacanthidae (Toad Blenny) and Pataecidae (Prowfish), and Scorpaenoidea (Scorpionfish, Lionfish, Stonefish, Coral Crouchers, Rockfish, and Cofish) with the families Eschmeyeridae (Cofish), Sebastidae (Rockfish), Pteroidae (Lionfish, Stonefish, and Coral Crouchers), and Scorpaenidae (Scorpionfish).
My best mate got spooled by a mega flatty on the tweed jist near boyds bay bridge and after my brother and me catching a couple 70 - 80cm one we new that one would’ve been at least a meter 10 centermeters
Hey mate, been kayak fishing recently and have been drifting with the incoming and outgoing tides. On multiple occasions now I drift past 75cm plus flatties and they get spooked. I guess I am just getting unlucky? The water is super clear and I tend to spook even the smaller ones. Is it worth anchoring up and casting in all directions then drifting a little further and repeating?

Paddle tails for the win! Caught some of my best fish using minnows. Very surprising the size of the flathead you can pull out of super shallow water!
Good video guys keep it up 👍
I love the way you think the rest of us can cast a foot and a half from the shore. 1 cast like that, 12 in the trees. 😂

Great video but strange seeing ya not wrapped up in daiwa gear 😆
New sub 👍🏻
Daiwa revross and Shimano Sedona valid?
Shit gaff shot on the Mackie nearly ripped the lure out and the paternoster was dodgy as even the sinker hung awkward.

Fish ALONG the sand and weed banks for flatties guys, youll double / triple your catch compared to casting across them! 😉
👍
Didn’t look like operator error to me.
Megabux! 😂😂😂
$550 for the combo in the video?
HAHA BCF said so
Do you win $5k worth of gear if you catch a flathead?
Cool to see you doing some RUclips videos mate! Ever want sandytrackx fishing to tag along hit me up! ( Hey I got to try) haha nice work brother ❤️🎣
